After strolling along Hanamikoji until I was satisfied, I was now on my way to Nishiki Market. Walking through the market, which is 390 meters long, is also walking through a 400-year long historical path, as written on its website, and the atmosphere was quite atmospheric.
The Nishiki Market is known as the [kitchen of Kyoto] and it was quite crowded. Kano san and I are in the middle of our food walk.
“I’m sure my calorie intake is going to be huge just for the day.”
“Everything looks so delicious that I don’t blame myself for overeating.”
“I’m worried about gaining weight.”
“I don’t gain weight so it’s fine.”
“Oh, you just made enemies with a lot of people.”
We are talking about such things while eating grilled beef sushi. Even though I just ate a lot of eel for lunch, I feel like I’m going to gain weight if I eat this much.
“Oh, that’s right. I know a good way for the two of us to burn calories in a fun and pleasant way, how about after this?”
“…By the way, what kind of method would you use? I can’t imagine it at all.”
I had no idea if there was such a method, although I would have known about it myself. As I expected, I got a ridiculous answer.
“First of all, we need to go to a hotel that has a “love” sign on it.”
“No, no, no, absolutely not.”
“Well, apparently sex burns a lot of calories, so I thought it was a great idea.”
“But if we’re not a couple, that’s only going to be a problem.”
“Oh, so it’s okay if we go out first?”
“O-only if we go out together.”
“I see. So I’ll just have to wait a little longer.”
It seems that in Kano san’s mind, she is planning to go out with me soon. While thinking about this, I continued walking around Nishiki Market.
“I’d like to try something sweet this time, so how about some soft-serve ice cream over there?”
“That sounds good. They seem to have a lot of different kinds, so let’s try that one.”
After much deliberation, Natsuno chose the honey ice cream and I chose the black soybean kinako ice cream.
“After all, on a hot day like today, sweet and cold soft serve ice cream is the best, isn’t it?”
“I feel a little more energized.”
As the two of us were walking and eating the soft serve ice cream, Kano san took an unexpected action.
“That one looks good, too. Give me a bite.”
“Ah, wait.”
She took a bite of my soft-serve ice cream with roasted soybean paste from the side.
“Hmm, it’s delicious.”
“I don’t think it’s okay for you to eat half of it.”
“Sorry, sorry, I’ll give you half of my honey ice cream instead.”
Saying that, Kano san held out the soft serve ice cream in her hand in front of me. I bite into it without thinking. The sweet taste of honey spread in my mouth and it was extremely delicious.
“Heh, even Yuito doesn’t resist indirect kisses anymore.”
“It’s too late to say that, I just had my first kiss stolen from Kano san the other day.”
“I remember that.”
Considering that we had our first public kiss in the name of saving lives in Tokyo Summer Hills, an indirect kiss was no big deal.
I feel like my senses are pretty numb when I think that way, but I don’t care.
“So how about we kiss more intensely from now on?”
“That’s a different story.”
“Muu, that’s boring.”
I mean, kissing in broad daylight is not something that even normal couples would do. Unless, of course, they are a couple of idiots who don’t care about their surroundings. After that, we continued to eat and walk around for a while, and I realized that it was getting close to time to go home.
“It’s already this late.”
“These two days went by so fast, didn’t they?”
“Yeah, I haven’t had enough fun yet.”
“You’re just too energetic.”
I’m exhausted from playing around today as I did yesterday. I don’t understand why Kano san seems so unconcerned about the fact that I, who should be physically stronger than the average boy, am so tired.
We left Nishiki Market with these thoughts in mind and returned to Kyoto Station via the subway. Then we started to pick out souvenirs for the family. By the way, Kano san had bought souvenirs from Osaka.
After that, we bought Shinkansen tickets at the ticket office to use the student discount as we did on the way to Kyoto.
“Next time we come to Kyoto, we have to take the kids with us as promised.”
“RIght……don’t speak on the assumption that we’re naturally married.”
“By the way, I’m hoping for both a boy and a girl, so do your best.”
“I told you to quit talking about it too vividly.”
I was the one who said so, but there was also a part of me that thought it must be fun to have such a future. Well, I was too embarrassed to tell Kano san that. And so our two-day trip to Kyoto came to an end.
